Top Three Tropical Materials for Ceiling Treatments

Imagine walking into a resort that claims to offer a relaxed and tropical vibe only to look up at the ceiling to find a white wall with zero details. It is sure to ruin anyone’s mood. And if you are a business owner of such a resort or a hotel or any building that claims to offer exclusive experiences to their consumers then make sure that you pay attention to your ceilings as much as you would to any other wall. If you are confused about how a ceiling that fits your aesthetic would work in terms of functionality then contacting a firm that provides both interior, as well as exterior design services, would be in your best interest.

However, if you are just looking for some inspirations for your reed ceiling, then here are the top three tropical materials for ceiling treatments:

Reed Ceiling Panels

These ceilings are created by gluing single reeds parallelly on a Masonite board. People who have a flair for authenticity will absolutely love reed ceilings as they’ve been used to construct roofs for hundreds of years. Reeds also tend to be immune to fire but if there is an excessive concern then these ceilings can be applied with the fire shield – a special type of fire retardant. Reeds are also great at maintaining the temperature and it protects the room from rot, mould and/or fungi. Reeds are also known to be durable enough to last for decades together making them an overall great investment.

Timber

Timber is another material that has been used for years to create roofs and justifiably so. Timber really adds to the overall rustic feel of a room and never goes unnoticed. It helps in illuminating the room in soft and warm colours without compromising on the brightness. And timber ceilings require minimal maintenance. Once they’ve been installed, you might need to re-treat them every five years or so. Timber is also known to have excellent insulation properties. When compared with steel in terms of insulation it is 400 times better and when compared to aluminium it is 1770 times better. All these characteristics of timber make it the perfect material for a tropical ceiling.

Bamboo

Bamboos are not just a popular option; they are also affordable. Given that it is lightweight, it can be easily transported to the place of construction making it one of the most cost-effective options. It can survive harsh weather conditions. And given that bamboo reaches maturity in just 5 years, as opposed to other types of word, it is also easily available at all given times. In spite of possessing these qualities bamboo still gives that much needed rustic and natural look.

Conclusion

When you promise your visitors a tropical feel, it is your duty to everything possible to make their experience worthwhile. Rooms that have bamboo, timber or reed i.e., ceilings made out of natural and sustainable materials will definitely add value to their overall experience.
